My friend Robyn and I are determined to wean our boys. We loved nursing, we loved that the boys love it , but it's time. We have both successfully night weaned and neither of us are game for simply going cold turkey- if we were both boys would have been weaned by now. So instead we are going to blog about it! Try to find ways to get our boobs out of their mouths , while not being too harsh with them, they are our babies after all.
Our goal is to be boobless by 2009 ! I have my doubts but I am always up for a challenge. Also incase you don't know us, both of us have been breastfeeding our boys for 2 years, so please don't think we don't support breastfeeding, we do , I encourage every woman to breastfeed it's amazing but every breastfeeding relationship comes to an end at some point, we have hit that point months ago and toughed it out, now it's time !
So my goal today is : After nap have a cup and snack ready and offer it first, if he asks for "BooBoo" I won't refuse but I am cutting it to no longer than 8 minutes ( it's been 9-10 recently).
I'll let you know how it is going!

Good luck, my girlfriend is going though this now too. I should have her check your blog out. I know it's hard, but with all due respect, I think it's amazing that you have done it...just like my girlfriend. I'm proud of you for doing it as long as you have. It awesome! I wish you tons of Good luck, I really do.
Allie, that you write about it is hilarious! I think my son would have nursed until he was 18, if I had let him. (Jenn's brother!) Good luck!
